Re: [AlpacaTalk] First time daddy!!

Thanks for the information.
Although Eugene Oregon is my most
favorite place, It is a little far from
Jasper GA.
You know, I am beginning to like this Alpaca
Talk site. No political gossip.

If you're looking for a good LSG herd sire, my
mom's got a really nice
jr sire, placed 2nd at AlpacaMania 2005 ahead
of Aussie Rockford and El
R Luciano sons. Woodland Meadows Greyson had
22 microns at almost 2
years of age, from last year's clip. He has
really nice crimp and
excellent conformation, and a very full
topknot. He has no spots, just
a very uniform LSG with the typical tuxedo
white. He's one I'm
seriously considering breeding my TB Bolivian
dam to this year.
